Hi IC,

I agree that the owner is trying to snowball someone with at 155k of having to replace the engine. It would have to be in the $4k range for me too take a chance on it.

I get 250k out of my gassers without any problem and my VW diesel I got 300k. I'm expecting 400k to 500k from my 02 PSD.

Having turbo power is like adding another engine when you need it. Of course using the turbo cost money however I light foot mine and get 14mpg while pulling 16kGCW thru the Colorado Rockies and 19mpg empty. Using turbo power drops me to about 10mpg. A non-turbo engine will get alittle better fuel mileage but at 1/2 the power which is still more than the 460.
